Seriously... but one day I was really thirsty and bought one of their tiny bottles of water. and the guy is like, 'for just 25 cents more you can get the bigger bottle of water.' and i was like, 'sir, i know you are trained in up-sizing, but i don't want to have to piss thru the whole movie.'
they probably just looked at you like you were stupid for not bringing your own shit in your girlfriends purse like a smart person. the door person has to tell you you cant bring in outside stuff if they see it.. but do you really think that making minimum wage they care if you sneak it in? no. but if they see it they have to say something so they dont get bitched at. trust me i used to work at a theater. if they dont see it, thier manager cant see it, so they dont give two shits.
i thought it was funny haha. and i don't think the OP was trying to attack the minimum wage earning teenagers that work there, but just trying to prove the water was too expensive. so everyone calm their shit.
hey 3:13, i'm from madison too!! small world. i'm pretty sure this text is referring to the madison malco theater. i haven't been there in a while, but i recall the prices being ridiculous. $4.50 for water in madison wouldn't surprise me.
this is why I load up my purse with goodies before the movie... soda, candy, beef jerky, pickles and hot dogs from the gas station (those are soo damned good) then we settle in, open up the purses and enjoy the show with our snacks
I feel ya 832 people I worked at an overpriced burger joint and people always looked at me like I could control the price of their food. I would be like "there's a Wendy's across the street people"
You know going into a theater that you're a captive audience and concessions are expensive. Why whine to the poor schmuck working there? If you don't want to pay for concessions, sneak it in (or, here, you just walk it on in- none of the employees care). Was this bottle of water to go with the $6 tub of 25 cents worth of popcorn? It's all relative. Quit yer bitchin'. I'm guessing you're also the guy who yells at kids to "get off my lawn!", too.
LMFAO @ 4:43pm. I wouldn't trust the water either. I'd rather pay the $4.50 for the bottled...
Seriously, when you go out, be prepared to pay! Whether you're going out to the movies, dinner, drinking, whatever. You know you'd spend $9 on a pint of Jack & coke. If you want a bottled water, you're gonna have to pay the $4.50! It's 2009. Get with it!
6:20, only sometimes.
they don't always have those little plastic cups at the registers.
when i was working there people used to yell at me because their shit was so expensive.
i told em "go to walmart and get what you want. don't yell at me because you don't wanna pay for stuff that you knew was expensive anyway"
they'd buy the stuff anyway.
I'm sure not paying 4.50 on top of the nine or ten dollars you already spent on a movie ticket is going to make a difference to people at concession. They'll probably just bitch about you Mr. Too Cool for School and the fat chicks asking for extra butter during down time.
Ok dude.. I work in a movie theater.. CORPORATE makes the prices. Do you think the employess care if you buy it or not? Ooh.. and some theaters have a water fountain.. what a fantastic concept..
ok i work at AMC let me just say you can ask for a cup of tap water instead of toilet water, also you're not clever for saying that, we hear it 50 times a day. why dont you just bring your own water??
